Intel 530 SSD S.M.A.R.T issue

[MRahn]

Hello,

I have strange issue with my brand new 2.5" Intel 530 SSD 120GB. Every time I start it, in SMART Self-test log appears new test with status:

"Offline - Interrupted (host reset) - Remaining 10%".

If I run the test manually it completes with no errors. And that's really every time. Also SMART info says:

General SMART Values:

Offline data collection status: (0x05) Offline data collection activitwas aborted by an interrupting command from host.

Auto Offline Data Collection: Disabled.

I updated the SSD firmware to latest DC32. Device Model is: INTEL SSDSC2BW120A4. Also tested on different machines and still not found a solution.

Does somebody else has this problem and is there any fix for it?

A full diagnostic scan will indicate if the drive is good or not.

I haven't noticed any problems with the drive till now. Only the auto-generated interrupted self-tests. I will run the full test too and write back but I think it's not normal always to auto-generate these self-test on every start and get interrupt them.

May the auto-generated interrupted offline self-tests appear because my chipset does not support SATA 3 - it's SATA 2?

Here's some SMART Self-test log entries:

Num Test_Description Status Remaining LifeTime(hours) LBA_of_first_error

# 1 Offline Interrupted (host reset) 10% 10 -

# 2 Offline Interrupted (host reset) 10% 9 -

# 3 Offline Interrupted (host reset) 10% 9 -

# 4 Offline Interrupted (host reset) 10% 9 -

As I promise earlier, I also ran Full Diagnostic Test using Intel SSD Toolbox and it completed successfully. Do you have an idea what is generating these interrupted offline self-tests?

Test # 5 and # 21 were run by me by hand and that's why they are "Completed without error". But all the others are auto-generated and not normal according to me.

What is the tool you are using to read the logs and run the self-tests?
